Week #59

 

Well this week was very good. On Tuesday we taught Nancy and Ed again and they are doing very very good. Nancy said she prayed about the Book of Mormon and that when she prayed she felt an overwhelming feeling of peace. She is getting closer and closer. Then after our lesson we had a fish fry! it was so good I loved it. They came to church this Sunday again and really enjoyed it! The Osters are still doing great and Sister Oster is just sharing the gospel with all of her friends.

 

So we traveled to transfers and I dropped off Elder Weeks and then picked up Elder Shepherd. Elder Shepherd is a really good elder. He has his head on straight I am excited to see what happens this transfer!

 

Well the craziest thing happened when Elder Shepherd came to Fort Frances. We were woken up in the middle of the night at like 4 in the morning. Some car came flying down our street and ended up breaking a telephone pole in half and then smashing into another pole.....So I am thinking that someone hit our car and so I go to look at our car and nothing. Then I look out our front door and their is some car on fire! so I'm like elder get your clothes on there are people hurt. We rush out to this car and there are two girls just hurt really bad. Their was blood everywhere. They were really really drunk, and there was a guy who was in the passenger seat and he was fine and so we were like we need a phone we will call 911.Then he starts cussing us out and saying I don't want to go to jail! so then the car starts getting more on fire and these girls are still in the car and we didn't want to get them out because we could have hurt them even more since we are not certified to do so. So the girls finally get them selves out of the car and it was gross, they just looked like zombies. It was a gross scene. Then they all ran and took off before the cops came....haha but they got to the hospital and then got their punishments. It was crazy though. We were the only people on our street helping them at first and then the rest of the neighbor hood woke up and was out there with us.

 

So then we had zone conference this week followed by district conference and I was in priesthood leadership meetings on Saturday so it was a weird first few days for Elder Shepherd not a lot happened since we were busy with a lot of other things.

 

But our week  is looking  busy, and we have so much going on this week it is going to be great!

 

But yeah everything else is going really good.

 

Last night we were on exchanges with the assistants.  We went to contact this investigator named crystal but we had to cross the train track to get there which means we had to go through the bush (woods) and it is a little scary because  a lot of bears are in town. haha but we were safe :) but we ended up walking there and got stopped by a less active that we were trying to get in contact for a while. It is neat when you are just lead by the spirit not knowing the things that will happen just like Nephi.

 

Well I really do know that the gospel is true and that it has blessed my life. This is the best thing I have ever done. I know the church is true.

 

love you and all of you so much.

All is well
